Playful weekend

This weekend was packed full of activity. I was determined to not sit at home and play inside all day. We did play some inside, but not today.

It was gorgeous outside. I can't even believe how nice. I had a photo shoot and Jim brought the girls up to Ault Park to join me and Jordan.

We played in the open field with soccer balls for a while. Maddy was so protective of "her" soccer ball. She kicked it down the field a bit... as far as her little legs would carry her. She would run up to it and kick it and do it again. Jim would run along side her to keep her going. She got distracted some by the mulch on the side of the grass. She'd, of course, bend over to look at it. Glad she likes nature.

Reagan played quite a bit with Jordan. Those two got a little heated at times. Reagan wanted to play her way. Most of the time that was fine. It's interesting to watch to "first borns" interact. Reagan can kick the ball pretty far and hard now. I was totally impressed. Not only that, she will run like crazy to get it. Impressive she has that in her. I really don't get to see her run like that often.

After we got done with playing ball, we drove over to the jungle gym at the same park. Reagan immediately fell off the swings. I think she was playing on the "big girl" swings and her butt was too small to stay on them. She came over crying in Jordan's arms. So sad. She straightened up a bit and went to find another thing to play on.

Maddy wanted to swing. Jim pushed her for a long time before she got tired of it. Jordan and Reagan played on the swings for quite some time as well while Maddy and I played on the jungle gyms.

After a bit, it was time to go home. Maddy was exhausted. I put her down for a nap - it didn't take her too long to settle in for her nap. Reagan gave up too. She sat on her bean bag in the living room, turned on Dragon Tails and zoned out. Jordan wasn't much different.

So much fun.
